worth saving?

[gxray]

Recently , in an old barn , I found hundreds and hundreds of mason jars and fruit jars in boxes , crates and barrels and scattered about all over the place. Also an old French style woodstove ( very ornate) with a crack in it. Do y'all think these are worth salvaging?...your opinions are appreciated.

not worth much,25 cents apiece if your lucky,stove for scrap metal price

I disagree with your pricing of the Jars

Not to mention the stove which he hasn't even looked at.

I ate at a place once that served their iced tea in fruit jars. Monty

if you found dollar bills laying there instead of all the jars would you pick em up ?.............theres your answer

Niice one! hehe, but i agree, i would clean them up and keep them, or at least look up
the brand or try to locate the makers. Even if it is older glass bottles/jars it still has a charm!

It looks like there's enough jars for you to have a good display and make a few bucks at the
same time and the stove would fetch a good price too I reckon.
So good luck what ever you decide.

Save the jars clean them and if you don't want to sell them put relics in them and display both, they make very nice displays for bullets, buttons, rivets j-hooks etc. this way everyone that views your collection will not be putting their oily hands on the relics you wish to preserve...
